A book-import workflow that extracts supported ebook, Markdown, or text-based PDF files and splits them into chapters in the echo-reading project.

Use it to add a new book, divide it into chapter files, preserve the original source, and create reading progress information.

It prepares a book’s source text for reading without mixing in extra processing, while detecting unsupported scanned PDFs first.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00181	$0.02589
Opus 5.5	$0.00072	$0.01036
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00036	$0.00518
Haiku 4.5	$0.00018	$0.00259

Security

Grade C, and why

book-ingest scanned grade C with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 5 executable files (scripts/ebook_lib.py, scripts/inspect_book.py, scripts/source_lib.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

rm -rf with a variable or a broad path is one typo away from removing the wrong tree.

What ships with it

6 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
